i was thinkin i blew the ring lands but i hold compression perfectly.. so its reallly wired.. and where did the noise and white smoke come form? and why did the oil burn out while the car was idleing for like 10 m before i pulled the plugs.. didnt stumble or nuthing..

a few more situations that could have caused your simptoms resolve

1. seal could have been installed wrong (accidents happen)

2. ring lands generally do not just blow out very easy. it may be possible

3. noise may have come from a number of things. Im thinking anything that rotates other than any internal engine part. Alt, idler pullys, p.s. pump, ac clutch, fan clutch and ...

4. white smoke usually means water in the combustion chamber when exhaust condensation is ruled out.

5. as far as oil burn out, be sure the oil was in the cylinder. check the spark plug location before removing it. if you see oil, this will confirm if oil is coming from the valve cover circular gasket location. If no oil is present, proceed to pulling the spark plug and view the tip. if the tip is wet, it may be from bad valve seals and or guides, piston ring gaps just happened to line up increasing blowby. Rings do not seem to be a factor since compression was good in all cylinders..
